Alice Bravo fined by Miami-Dade ethics board for lobbying on airport contract
Posted by Admin on Sep 9, 2021 | 0 commentsFormer Miami-Dade Transit Director Alice Bravo pleaded no contest on Wednesday to an accusation that she violated the county’s ethics code by lobbying two months after leaving her $250,000-a-year county job — rules require a minimum of two years — and she was basically slapped on the wrist by the Commission on Ethics and Public Trust.
The commission found probable cause that Bravo violated the county’s ethics code when she met with Miami-Dade Commission Chairman Jose “Pepe” Diaz in April at the same time as other and registered lobbyists who wanted him to kick out a $50 million contract recommendation for design and engineering services at Miami International Airport — which went to the top two ranked bidders — and start the bidding process over.
